Sign the "Strange" Single Online Petition!
Posted Wed, Aug 20, 2003 - 4:36pm ET | Music
Jason has begun an online petition that I wanted to bring to your attention and encourage you to sign. Visit the Strange" Single Online Petition web site now and take part if you can. Here is the mission statement of the petition:
To have the radio edit of the song "Strange" by Tori Amos released as a commercial CD single by Epic Records. The single would also contain some or all of the "Scarlet's Web" b-sides, including the songs "Tombigbee," "Seaside" and "Mountain," previously only available through streaming audio on Tori Amos' website... By making these songs only available as streaming audio, the quality of the songs is much lower than that of songs on a CD. We the listeners, would like the privilege to purchase these songs on a CD at their highest quality, and releasing them as b-sides to "Strange" appears to be the most logical action.
